I moved into a 1930s house in January and the the bolier packed up after about 6 weeks. It is a back boiler in the downstairs back room and very old. I planned to change it anyway but first it stopped heating the water and then pipes started making strange loud noises so I've stopped using it and my only source of hot water is the electric shower.
I am going to have a condensing combi boiler installed and just wondered which boiler people would recommend?
I've had quotes by heating engineers and they've named brands from Ariston to Bosch Worcestor and Valiant. I'm looking for reliability and efficiency first of all.
Also, I'm having a kitchen extension built and the plan is to put new boiler in there but this won't be complete for a couple of months and I need hot water-I'm currently doing the bathroom and want to put in a mixer shower so I won't have my electric shower. The boiler is kind of holding things up there. The water tank/cylinder thing will go from upstairs bedroom but I don't want to put the new one in there. Any alternative suggestions about where to put the boiler now?
Sorry it's such a long post!
